Safety Signal

Submitted by Flepple on Thu, 2020-11-26 12:17

Hello,

I am a beginner in software coding, so i would need your help. For my application I need the motor controller to shut down the pwm signals if there is no signal from a RS422 interface coming in. This means, the motor controller should not work, if this signal is not at high level. 

Where can I implement this the best? I use the Axiom Hardware configuration with a STM32F446 uC. 

Would be very nice, if someone could help me with this. Thanks in advise an best regards,

Florian

Compiling code for NRF52

Submitted by shaman on Thu, 2020-11-19 01:26

I've been trying to change the RX/TX pin assignments for the NRF52 code from Ben's Github repo. Unfortunately I think I'm doing something wrong because the code doesn't work after I compile the code and flash it to the NRF52832  module. I have installed the ARM and  NRF52 SDK dependencies and also changed the IS_52832 variable in the makefile to 1.

Unbricking a bricked VESC6 - A step by step procedure

Submitted by espen.oland on Tue, 2020-11-17 18:00

Hi all,

I've recently spent some time figuring out how to unbrick the VESC6-MK-IV. To help others with the same problem, I'll share the procedure of how I did this, as there are many ways of doing this according to the forums. My current setup is that I have an STM32407 Discovery card that can be connected to the VESC6, and I used the ST-Link together with the STM card to write the firmware to the VESC. Most of the procedure can be done using an ST-Link dongle instead.

 

Procedure:

DBC development

As i needed a  complete overview over all can Messages, i started doing things properly following an accepted industry standard.
So i started building a dbc file for VESCs (and ofc. all other projects with the same or similar Firmware....). 

Right now, there are not all messages in there, but the rest will follow over the course of this week. Also for now, the messages are only in there for one VESC with ID 1.  So, it is far from done, but i wanted to share it anyways. If there are any thougths about posible improvements, please share them.

should i update my unity to get the latest update for stormcore app?

Like my title states, i am very new to all of this. I have the stormcore beta on my phone, and i would love to use it but my unity esc is too out of date. I need to perform a software update but i am unsure on how to do this. Any warnings/imsight would be amazing because my prior nowlage is essentially 0 on this subject. Thank you all.
